We can compare Merian’s print to the floral embroidery on this c.1700 stomacher @metmuseum - thanks to my #museumbuddy @IsabellaRosner for finding this gorgeous example. I love how the spacing (maybe?) mimics the spacing on the page of Merian’s print.
This engraving from her 1680 ‘New Book of Flowers’ was promoted for botanical study, but Merian understood how it could & would be used as a pattern book if she made the prints pattern-like, transferable to textile. #museumbuddy
Merian made ‘needle paintings’ & taught embroidery. So, when she began to work on paper she was primed to think how her works would translate across media. Her early compositions in print & drawing were also useful patterns/design inspiration for textiles. This image @rijksmuseum
Merian drew for art & science: ‘I was always encouraged to embellish my flower painting with caterpillars, summer birds [butterflies] & such little animals in the same manner in which landscape painters do in pictures, to enliven the one through the other. . .’ #museumbuddy
Merian is best known as a printmaker, botanical artist & entomologist (just a few things!), but like most 17th c. women, she was trained in needlepoint and fabric making from about age 8. Here's an early, gorgeous (!!!) hand-coloured engraving from the 1670s #museumbuddy
Day 2 of @museumbuddy! Today look at two 17th/e. 18th c print/textile makers. First, I’ve chosen Maria Sibylla Merian because I worked closely w/ her art when I worked in Prints & Drawings @britishmuseum. Her engraved self-portrait (1719) shows off her knowledge. #MuseumBuddy
Erucarum Ortus: The Miraculous Transformation and Unusual Flower-food of Caterpillars.

@AaronLinguini I haven’t played her yet, buuuut I wanted to make a character that was a combo of my two favourite classes - Warlock and Bard!
Hence, Merias Stone; who travels from tavern to tavern, singing some songs as she searches for her mother and patron, Mercedes

It's quite hard to draw #Layla_Alstroemeria but it's quite interesting when draw the details and hair.
